Original American Kazoo Company - It still produces them

[Richland123]

The Original American Kazoo Company, in Eden, NY outside Buffalo, was established in 1916 and is now the only metal kazoo factory in North America. The museum highlights history, amusing trivia, and shows step by step the way kazoos are made.

Hi.

Thanks for the link.

A "modern day" machine shop with jack-shafts and leather belts driving the machines WOW.

There's one inaccuracy in the text though. Not everyone can play a kazoo
